Snowmelt on hold


A cold April so far, with fresh snowfall events even down at sea-level elevations. Today was only about 5 degrees Celsius, and turning to rain in the afternoon or snow in the mountains. The stage hydrograph barely shows the diurnal snowmelt pattern which is typical during fine weather in this season. Snowpack remains in some shady spots near the gauging station (see photo above), while the cedar lysimeter had melted off (see photo below).
